Yes !
Initially, i think they were goig to try to put the entire blame of anything bad on Strzok and Page. The only two "bad apples".
But, the undeniable circle of blame is now being extended to McCabe.
I predict the next batch of stories comes out it will be how Comey was "kept in the dark" by McCAbe about the Weiner emails.
They’ll keep their powder dry until the memo comes out—it names names. They’ll try to claim that the highest person named was kept in the dark. I’m going to guess that will be Lynch.
Agree...they have to protect Comey because if they dump him, they prove Trump was right to fire him.
